Origin of lapse rate changes in the upper tropical troposphere
(American Meteorological Society, 2002)Vertical motions in clouds arise from a variety of thermodynamic processes, including latent heat release, evaporative cooling, melting, and cloud radiative heating. In the Tropics, the net upward vertical mass flux from ... -
Predicting mesoscale variability of the North Atlantic using a physically motivated scheme for assimilating altimeter and Argo observations
(American Meteorological Society, 2009-07)A computationally efficient scheme is described for assimilating sea level measured by altimeters and vertical profiles of temperature and salinity measured by Argo floats. The scheme is based on a transformation of ...
